Join our mailing list" [08:50] but no link [08:50] ah the link is here: http://ubuntu-za.org/get-support [08:50] the two pages are almost identical, they should probably be combined [08:51] ah here's the link to facebook too on the same page [08:51] personally i would put those links on the left in the main navigation or just above/below it [08:51] it's a good site, just not very well organised [08:53] time is the prob methinks [08:53] yeah that's understandable [08:54] if you want i'm happy to volunteer to improve it [08:54] i don't know if i'm allowed though as a non-south-african :) [08:54] you gotta talk to the pro or fly or maia [08:55] ok [08:56] im the greeter bot [08:57] haha [08:59] Kilos, charl_: I don't manage the site, superfly does but he's very busy, but I'm sure he would welcome any help that he could get [09:00] i included you inetpro because you know who does what [09:01] Kilos: eh [09:01] is it a permissions thing [09:01] you also know [09:01] Kilos: I guess he would have to assign initial permissions [09:01] hmmm [09:02] ok we wait for superfly [09:04] ive already forgotten what i wanted maverick to do when it gave probs [09:14] in the meantime charl_ write your testimonial why you are part of the top ubuntu community [09:15] top/best/friendliest/etc [09:39] wow, 110mbps over 4g in japan http://farm9.static.flickr.com/8486/8230706539_38f18a74ee_o.jpg [09:39] very nice [09:40] whew thats moving [09:40] 3g data will disappear fast [09:41] yeah i mean that's mobile internet! i have just a little more than half that at home and that's on landline [09:41] well, cable anyway [09:41] whew [09:41] how they push so much data over the airwaves is amazing [09:41] yeah [09:41] the landline providers will need to move fast with rolling out fibre or they will miss out [09:43] and at 41 euros per month - that's less than what i pay for my cable [09:43] time to learn japanese :) [09:44] lol [09:44] Der Untergang des Abendlandes :) [09:44] koko ni hon ga arimasu ka [09:47] watashi ha hon wo motte inai [09:50] thats all the jap i know man [09:51] where is the book [09:53] lol [09:53] i just (tried) to say i don't have a book [09:54] but yeah my japanese is not that great either, although i know a bit [09:54] oh shikaku [09:54] dischalified i think that means [09:55] sjoe [09:55] disqualified [09:55] i think it means "square" :) [09:56] aw [09:57] forgot too much [09:57] we need to learn Maaz some japanese so he can help :P [09:57] dozo is come here?
